Name: Zinnt

Species: Ferret

Gender: Male

Age: 30s

Weapons: Dual wield claymores along with a long pike

Personality: Once upon a time Zinnt had not been a cruel beast. In fact, he had been caring and unselfish, especially to his friend Bruntclaw. Never having been part of a vermin tribe or under vermin influence, Zinnt lived like a peaceful woodlander. However, his attitude became dark and greedy when Bruntclaw was murdered by a woodlander. Now feeling hatred for all woodlanders, he shunned their peaceful ways and began to learn how to use weaponry, particularly his claymores. His behavior became more erratic, involving much anger and many mood swings. Because of the incident involving Bruntclaw, he stays far away from woodlanders if he can in order to control himself

Appearance: Zinnt is a tall and sinewy creature with dark brown fur that has a slight reddish tint to it. His underbelly is also brown, but a lighter, more coffee-colored shade. Unlike most ferrets, however, he has cream colored stripes running across his back. He wears a loose tunic without sleeves, and a pair of belts runs diagonally across his chest and around his back. His claymores are usually stuck through these belts on his chest, and an extension loop on the back of one of the belts allows him to keep his pike in place behind him.

Occupation: Advisor to the Red King

Family: Bruntclaw (adopted brother; Deceased)

History: Born in Mossflower during a time of inter-vermin warfare and greed, Zinnt did not emerge from hiding until the vermin tribes had killed each other off one by one. It was at this time that he found an outcast like himself, a strong yet sagacious rat named Bruntclaw. They lived off the heart of the land with each other for years, never interrupting or being interrupted by other creatures. That changed when a rebellious squirrel killed Bruntclaw as Zinnt hid and watched, mistaking the rat for an enemy. Enraged, Zinnt sought out a vermin tribe and made a plea to join them, vowing revenge on the squirrel as he took up the use and training of weapons. Eventually, his travels brought him to lands beyond Mossflower, where he made a name for himself in the army of the Red Kingdom and became the advisor to the king.
